摘要

The dynamic interventions among sensor streams bring new challenges for the Internet of Things applications to derive meaningful information from a large amount of sensor streams. This paper proposes a declarative service-based method for capturing meaningful events from dynamic sensor streams based on our previous service abstraction, which can increase the value density of primitive sensor streams and raise the accessibility for higher level business applications. For aggregating related events from different sources, we set up declarative rules and compose cascaded events through service collaboration. In addition, for dealing with dynamic interventions among sensor streams, we propose a declarative rule evolution method to realize adaptive service collaboration at runtime. This paper also reports the tryout use of our method in the China Power Grid for detecting abnormal situations of power quality. Through a series of experiments based on real sensor data in the Power Grid, we verified that our method can capture events with high and steady precision.
